Seesaw tips the balance

IPTV company Seesaw has launched as a completely free service in the UK. It has programs from BBC, 4oD and Five available 24 hours a day and available to anyone without a sign-up etc.

They have 3,000+ hours of content available for viewers to watch including current series on terrestrial TV and it's streamed in Flash 10 video.

All the videos (even BBC - which comes from WorldWide) come with pre-roll adverts (i.e. before the program starts adverts are run).

For UK viewers Seesaw is a great catch-up free TV service with some good content.

    It looks good, and very appealing. When will the ISPs start complaining about bandwidth contention again? Or have they learned their lesson since the iPlayer was launched?

    Why shouldn't ISPs complain. Well maybe they shouldn't but then should address their pricing so it's based on usage rather than all you can eat.

    Unfortunately if they did all move to a usage based system, then consumers would lose out.
